Stumbled into a great thought by author Daniel Pink.  He was interviewed on the subject of happiness and this was one of his questions and answers.

Gretchen: Is there anything you find yourself doing repeatedly that gets in the way of your happiness?
Dan: Not working. By that I don’t mean taking vacations or indulging in leisure. I mean doing things that are tension-relieving rather than goal-achieving and that cause me to reach the end of the day having accomplished nothing. (Source)

Author James Loehr in his book “Stress for Success” calls it undertraining.

I think this idea is right on.
